Married a Single Mother
MSM 24

Raffael and Mario are currently having lunch together at one of the restaurants not far from Raffael's office. Since then Mario was very curious about the future wife of Raffael. Raffael may suddenly get engaged without telling her. Even Mario's parents did not know about this.

Raffael who has been asked many questions since, he was indifferent to Mario. The man seemed to be enjoying his lunch. Mario finally gave up. He just remembered that when he was eating, Raffael did not like to be disturbed. Or rather, his stomach was starving.

The age of eating, then Raffael tells about his fight. Mario has put his ears wide to hear the story of his best friend.

“I don't mean I'm ahead of you, Rio! It's just that my soul mate first comes. Cook yes I ignore it just like that.” said Raffael without burden.

“That's not all I wanted to ask. I wonder, what kind of woman has become your future wife? is she pretty? Sexy ones? And, um..” Ask Mario.

“Otak you seem to need to be washed so as not to get dirty. Already ah, I want to go back first.” Raffael said, and then immediately moved on.

“Hei wait a minute! You're not so happy, Raff? I came all the way here. And you just ignore it? story is also incomplete.” Grousers Mario.

“How bad? This food is all you spend too. Come all the way here? is Om Chiko's house now on Mars? And one more thing, I am not a storyteller who has to tell a complete story. I'm back first.”

Raffael immediately left Mario, because he was doing a lot of work. But he remembered one thing he wanted to ask Mario.

“Oh yes, you are engaged, right? When's? Later I will invite my fiancee to come.” asked Raffael.

“Ah, I'll tell you later.” replied Mario with annoyance.

After Raffael's death, Mario is still sitting still.His delayed return makes his engagement plan was also postponed. The mood is really bad. Moreover, his lover until now is still upset with him, then coupled with news of Raffael's engagement which he thinks is very sudden. As a friend, Mario still does not accept it all. Why does Raffael seem to forget about it. Nonetheless, he was also grateful that Raffael was finally able to find the moorings of his heart. Since both lived abroad first, Mario knows that Raffael has never once been seen holding a woman. let alone her figure is very perfect and always loved by many beautiful women. Raffael has never been interested in them. Different from himself.

As promised to Raffael to Jelita, after office hours, Raffael rushed to the cafe. Not meeting for a few hours Raffael had missed the woman, so he wanted to immediately get her wedding with Jelita.

Upon arrival at the cafe, the atmosphere looked very crowded. Raffael chose a seat that was a little more comfortable and away from the crowd. He also saw his lover was busy serving some visitors who were mostly young children.

Raffael smiled looking at Jelita who always looks beautiful in her eyes.she felt grateful to be able to meet a simple woman like Jelita. Although until now Jelita has not reciprocated her feelings, Raffael has been quite happy because her proposal was accepted. At least he could still keep trying to make the woman fall in love with him.

Raffael knows Jelita. It is not easy for a woman like Jelita who has a dark past and can easily accept someone's love. Moreover, the incident still left a deep trauma in Jelita's heart. Raffael promised in his heart. He will heal Jelita's trauma from her past.

Raffael doesn't want to know more about who the bajak***an guy who has ruined Jelita's future just yet. The most important thing right now is Jelita's future who will always be on the woman's side, both in a state of joy and sorrow.

Soon Jelita came to Raffael. He behaves like any other employee. Record the menu of orders Cafe visitors then ask him to wait.

“I order the servant only. sit here, accompany me to chat.” Raffael cried with a smile staring at Jelita.

“Mas, I'm working. Don't be like this!” jelita said in a half-whispering voice.

Raffael also does not want to make Jelita into gossip by his friends. Finally he relented and let his girlfriend continue her work. While Raffael chose to enter the house of Bu Alin to accompany Ethan to play.

At seven o'clock in the evening Jelita was finished with her work. He goes into Miss Alin's house to pick up Ethan. But suddenly Jelita's step stopped when he saw Ethan's interaction with Raffael who was so close.

Unknowingly Jelita shed her tears.Perhaps all this time she was wrong because she never told Ethan about the existence of the figure of Father. At a young age, clearly Ethaan desperately needs a father figure who will accompany and guide his son.

“Don't be sad, Lita! I know what you're thinking right now, and your decision to accept Raffa as your future husband and father-to-be Ethan is not wrong. Don't blame yourself. I know that until now you have not received the presence of Raffa in your heart, because it is very difficult. But, by accepting him as a father to Ethan, I'm sure you'll slowly fall in love with Raffa.” Bu Alin said at length.

Jelita just kept quiet and kept seeing Raffael and Jelita's interactions. All Ms. Alin's words are correct. The most important thing is Ethan's happiness. Because Ethan is the most valuable treasure he has ever had.

“It's done?” tanya Raffael approached Jelita.

“Sud..sudah.” replied Jelita then threw away her face and wiped the rest of her tears.

Ethan ran to his mother. The boy cried out in excitement at the sight of his mother's arrival. Ethan is like a child that his mother has left for a long time. Jelita only worked a few hours.

Jelita takes Ethan home. Raffael followed him too. Because the goal is to come to talk to Jelita.

“Sorry Mas waited a long time!” said Jelita approached Raffael who had been waiting for her in the living room. Ethan just went to sleep.

“Nothing. Have you eaten?”

“Not yet. In a moment. if Mas want, I will prepare all.”

“Yes, later. I want to have a serious talk with you first, Jelita.”

“Speaking what, Mas?”

Raffael took a deep breath before talking to Jelita about her intention to hasten the marriage. Although Raffael had prepared his heart if only Jelita rejected the plan, but he still hoped Jelita accepted it.

“I want to speed up our marriage, Jelita. How?”

Raffael fell silent after giving the question, as well as Jelita who seemed to be thinking. Wouldn't it be too soon if she accepted Raffael's call to hasten the marriage? But seeing Ethan who looks cheerful when with Raffael, it seems there is no harm also if he agrees to Raffael's invitation.

“Ehm, it's up to Mas only. I follow.” Jelita answered while bowing her head.
